Scientific paper

Background considerations are presented for the Halley's Comet observation experimental program that will be implemented by the Space Shuttle Orbiter's Long Duration Exposure Facility (LDEF), scheduled to fly in 1984. The LDEF will incorporate an interplanetary dust experiment for the detection of submicron particles. The characteristics of the LDEF are predicated on analyses of readings made aboard the Explorer 46 satellite by solid-state capacitors. Attention is given alternative interpretations of the submicron particles, which may be produced by collisions, comets, or interstellar dust penetration of the solar system.
